I EMBRACE MY UNIQUENESS
Yoga is a journey! Here is a short story on my journey:
I started my yoga story while reorienting myself in China. Before we moved to China, I was combining an exciting consulting job with raising three children in Antwerp. Living in China offered me a new canvas. I embarked on our Chinese adventure by studying Mandarin at university & launching a company on the Air Pollution topic. At the same time I was taking yoga classes. I had a hard time finding my place in our new lives, but I felt that my own yoga practice functioned like a catalyst for me. That is when I decided to take a full-time Yoga Teacher Training.
​
From a young age I have been practising classical & contemporary ballet, so I have always had a lot of body awareness. Yet I had never truly experienced the connection between body & mind. Practising yoga allows me to work with my body to find the peace in my head, and grow as a person.
​
My unique blend of heart & head
Practicing yoga allows me to truly connect with my heart, and unconditionally embrace other people. I combine this with my unique consulting background. I still love thinking in processes and solutions. I enjoy embarking people on their personal Yoga Journey. You will step into a personalised trajectory that feels good.

TESTIMONIALS
Austyn: "I've dabbled in yoga for years but have never experienced it like I do with Ruth. It is soul food! Ruth is able to manage my energy and tailor the class to exactly what I need. An intense and fast-paced class leaves me feeling strong and empowered whereas a slower, gentler class gives me curiosity and acceptance towards myself. I leave every time feeling centered. She is a gifted teacher and I'm hooked!"
Marloes: "Ruth's studio is like a little oasis where you feel away from busy day to day life. After her lessons I always feel energised, relaxed & my mind is more focused."
Martina: "I have the pleasure to regularly see Ruth in her beautiful Yoga studio. Her classes and the wooden Yoga shed surrounded by greenery are truly soothing for me. Ruth is a beautiful person, who makes sure you find your inner balance and feel relaxed during her classes. I always leave with a calm mind, nicely stretched body and a smile on my face!"
Richelle: "Always wanted to learn how to let go - never could - Ruth is teaching me how. Love it!"
Renee: "Ruth has such a natural sense of what you need and when you need it even when you yourself are not aware. She has a great way of guiding you through each and every session in a warm, compassionate and encouraging way. I have found joy and a sense of freedom in the sessions I have had regularly over the past year. I love working with Ruth."

I studied the fundamentals and obtained my Yoga Alliance Teacher Certificate in Hatha, Vinyasa and Ashtanga Yoga with my strong Indian teacher, Rajeev from Dristhi Yoga in Shanghai.
